it never gets oldPuerto Rico, in my opinion, boasts one strong advantage over almost any other game. There is almost no luck involved. No die rolls, no drawing of cards or random events. You see every players strengths and weaknesses, now it's up to you to work with that knowledge.--Jake from Kokomo, Indiana

A must have for any player or collector.The set up and learning process only sounds a tad bit intimidating, but easily gives way to a fun and strategic game. This is one of the best games I have ever played. I look forward to going to a friend's house and seeing this box. This is a must have for any game player or collector.--Ricardo from Bellflower, CA, USA
